I'm a big fan of Common, the rapper. But Common the actor, not so much. He'd be a poor fit for Cage, imho. Com just doesn't have that streetwise tough guy LC needs, imho. He tried, in Street Kings and Smoking Aces, but he just wasn't believable to me. I could see Common in a supporting role, perhaps as one of Cage's street informants, but not in the titular role.
